Late August

Season changes make me feel warm
Hallucinating the feeling of my waist in your arms
Calling a moment forever seems to do no harm
Until you find it interrupted by your alarm

I promise I'm not bitter, I don't even truly care
That I'm trying not to panic every time I'm made aware
That you're moving on, ignore my gut as it swears
Every person you sleep with is another affair

I've been wearing your sweaters despite the summer heat
Anticipating September flashbacks to our first meet
And I've written some letters I'd never send they're too sweet
There's perfect moments I'm missing like syncing our heartbeats

There's a ghost of your lips on my mouth
And I can't seem to scrub the taste of you out
It's been longer than forever since we traveled south
A route I wouldn't have taken with anyone else

I promise I'm not bitter, I don't even truly care
That I'm trying not to panic every time I'm made aware
That you're moving on, ignore my gut as it swears
Every person you sleep with is another affair

I've been wearing your sweaters despite the summer heat
Anticipating September flashbacks to our first meet
And I've written some letters I'd never send they're too sweet
There's perfect moments I'm missing like syncing our heartbeats

Now late August, time's moving but I stay still
I picked up drinking, get me another refill
The doctor throws me on some antidepressant pill
But the hole you left cannot be filled
This new boy is so sweet, he covered my bill
But the ending is written and I know it will
End soon, I'll leave once this loses thrill
Cause everyone but you is just a pointless kill

I've been wearing your sweaters despite the summer heat
